From d2c672058a57e1640205a2afe04fecff75161e56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: pekon gupta Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2014 18:49:58 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] mtd: nand: omap: fix BCHx ecc.correct to return detected bit-flips in erased-page commit f306e8c3b667632952f1a4a74ffb910bbc06255f upstream. fixes: commit 62116e5171e00f85a8d53f76e45b84423c89ff34 mtd: nand: omap2: Support for hardware BCH error correction. In omap_elm_correct_data(), if bitflip_count in an erased-page is within the correctable limit (< ecc.strength), then it is not indicated back to the caller ecc->read_page(). This mis-guides upper layers like MTD and UBIFS layer to assume erased-page as perfectly clean and use it for writing even if actual bitflip_count was dangerously high (bitflip_count > mtd->bitflip_threshold). This patch fixes this above issue, by returning 'stats' to caller ecc->read_page() under all scenarios.
